Passed House (03/03/2021)
For the People Act of2021
This bill addresses voter access, election integrity and security, campaign finance, and ethics for the three branches of government.
Specifically, the bill expands voter registration (e.g., automatic and same-day registration) and voting access (e.g., vote-by-mail and early
voting). It also limits removing voters from voter rolls.
The bill requires states to establish independent redistricting commissions to carry out congressional redistricting.
Additionally, the bill sets forth provisions related to election security, including sharing intelligence information with state election officials,
supporting states in securing their election systems, developing a national strategy to protect U.S. democratic institutions, establishing in
the legislative branch the National Commission to Protect United States Democratic Institutions, and other provisions to improve the
cybersecurity of election systems.
Further, the bill addresses campaign finance, including by expanding the prohibition on campaign spending by foreign nationals, requiring
additional disclosure of campaign-related fundraising and spending, requiring additional disclaimers regarding certain political advertising,
and establishing an alternative campaign funding system for certain federal offices.
The bill addresses ethics in all three branches of government, including by requiring a code of conduct for Supreme Court Justices,
prohibiting Members of the House from serving on the board of a for-profit entity, and establishing additional conflict-of-interest and
ethics provisions for federal employees and the White House.
The bill requires the President, the Vice President, and certain candidates for those offices to disclose 10 years of tax returns.
It was a partisan DNC bill that immediately passed the house upon them gaining a majority.
And how exactly is this reforming finance? I’ve read the entire thing and don’t see a single thing that will change the current financial system in any meaningful way
Sounds like a strawman argument to me. This was passed years ago yet nothing has actually changed. It’s meaningless. If you can show me empirical evidence that demonstrates real reform then show me, otherwise your words are as meaningless as this “act”.
Your point was that a thing which you claim passed did not in fact pass? And I proved that? Clearly I’m arguing with an addict of some sort, hope you get that sorted out.
I don’t know what country you even live in, mate. If it’s the USA then look up “HR 1 For The People Act”.
Ok and? This act has nothing to do with financial reform.
If you think this changes anything then I have a bridge to sell you.
It literally does, though?

You have no argument.

Thanks for proving my point. ROFL.
Way to go slugger.
